Elder Law

Massachusetts Elder Law Attorney

In approaching your golden years, there are many important considerations that should be addressed. What types of life sustaining care are you comfortable with? Will long-term care planning be necessary? Whom do you trust to make financial decisions on your behalf? How do you wish to pass on your legacy? These are not easy questions, but avoiding them only results in someone else making these decisions for you. Contact the Lahti & Lahti, P.C. to schedule a consultation with a Certified Elder Law Attorney.

Comprehensive Elder Law Services in Massachusetts

Lahti & Lahti, P.C. is able to provide full service elder law guidance to clients locally in Southcoast, Cape Cod, and the surrounding communities. We assist clients by answering their questions and planning for the many legal concerns that may arise in one's elder years. We provide reasonable and cost effective guidance with issues, such as:

• Estate planning: We assist clients with creating wills and trusts, advance directives, guardianships, and planning to avoid probate.
• Planning for incapacity: a sudden medical condition, surgery, or mishap may leave you incapable of handling your healthcare and finances. We assist clients with proactively creating health care proxies, living wills, powers of attorney, and other healthcare directives.
• Nursing home planning and Medicaid planning: moving into a nursing home or other long-term care facility does not mean you have to put all of your assets toward the cost of residency. We assist clients with asset protection planning which enables them to be eligible for Medicaid without needlessly wasting their assets.
